Anybody know what these sinkers are called and where I can get some more. A mold would be even better. :popcorn:

I have used them (32 oz) for deep trolling around the puppy hole in the fall. Now I believe they are a decoy sinker for real but use them for whatever you need. I would look for them as a decoy sinker.

There is a guy in Washington state that makes great molds (pricey) but you can bet he has them. I will try to look him up and give you the info. He has lots of sinker molds in the high weight capacities.

The ones in the picture are only 3 oz. I'm looking for 3, 4, & 5's I think I got these in Frisco R&D a few years back not sure - they hold well!

Go to Hilts molds etc, they have the molds and the sinkers the size you want. I was thinking of using them also. Have only seen them once before and the guy broke it off before I could look real close at it...LOL... salt

They're called claw sinkers and Hilts has them. Problem is I have to buy two molds to get the sizes I want - but I have plenty of lead ;)

They are made for fishing sandy/gravel bottoms in current.

So they should be good for the ocean ehh? I have only seen them in heavy sizes (at Gander in Salisbury) and they sold them as decoy anchors. But I used'em for trolling up stipers ;)
